monoccular

Maggots keeping Magpies in it. A very rare occurrence over there. The AFL will be thrilled with the closeness of it. I wonder if Stevo had a few (through his mate of course) on a close result.

Would help but their personnel are pretty awesome.

Poor Collingwood - one man down most of the game - imagine the pain of it ? Commentators obviously unaware of our situation last week And Moore a recurrent recurrent hamstring - and without being able to blame Misson. Surely were he one of ours many here would be calling for Misson’s head.

OMG where did they find Cameron from? Amazing talent. And Flyin Ryan ... excitement machine. PS Colonwood getting far more 50/50 frees than I have ever seen for a visiting team in Perth. Instructions from betting agencies?

I usually prefer to listen at ABC Grandstand and watch 7 to avoid putting up with the inane crap but Malthouse is on ‘special comments’ tonight. OMG he is just so full of himself - I cannot put up with him. Never heard anything like it.

Ripping game. Best first Q I have seen this year. 12 goals Cameron amazing. Seven goals from his last seven kicks!

Neita ??!! Making a comeback to improve goal kicking?

BBP - that was with Tom there too ... now I would see it as a no brainer (which doesn't necessarily mean it will happen though).

Surely one shouldn’t let facts interfere with a good panic. ?

Not this one ?

OMG. Why not just close the club down, or sell off Ollie, Brayshaw, Gawn and anyone else who could help us get somewhere? I am 100% certain that GC$ would love to have Clarrie.

Not all concussions are alike. I would feel that repeat concussions demand more time out than first concussions, though of course some first concussions can be long lasting.

He can work out on fixing those deficits at Casey while JFK gets rewarded for hard work

Ron - as one of the dwindling numbers who saw the 1958 GF, I never thought that I could possibly utter those words, but I concur.

Diamond Jim - you forget it s the A FL, whose modus operandi is making decisions on the run.

Are you alluding to a certain #16 in the late 1950s early 1960s? Big Bob (as opposed to Tassie Bob #8) Johnson perfected this rôle.

IF Tommy was available then yes, probably not both but surely the serendipity of Tom's injury is that we more or less have to play them both.

Meniscal tear should nowadays ordinarily be a few Meeks to a month but MFCSS means it could be anything. Regardless he should be handled with kid gloves and why should any slight risk be taken in this total disaster of a season? The time off should enable him to fully recover from whatever held him back until the past few weeks. And I agree some goal kicking set shot routines should be part of his later rehab. Should give Preuss an opportunity to work with Max as an alternating forward. Or maybe as some have suggested try Oscar as a forward?

A score review, if deemed a goal, would have guaranteed a MFC win with a minute or less to go. Clearly the instructions were to keep the result open. Surely the footage is available somewhere and should be reviewed to “ensure the integrity of the game”. ???

Remember the last time the Cheaters doctor gave an opinion re MFC players “assaults”? Hogan got 2 if I remember correctly for a “delayed concussion” (whatever that is) on a player who was close to BOG the following week, and Lewis got 2 or 3 for breaking a jaw on someone who missed no games. So, mark my words, Lewis will go.

Tom McDonald - FMD in fact FMSeason Finally after a difficult season he hits good form and !!! Are there still any non believers in the Curse of Norm Smith?

Maybe you should move to Carlton and see if your pessimism is transferrable? especially if Tom's knee turns out as bad as most things we have suffered this season. Fair dinkum - he finally hit his straps then -- ping :-(((

I guess beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Not one dimensional in my opinion - ready to handball, goal assist, bit of reasonable ruck work. I suppose we will have to agree to disagree. Not every young KPF can burst onto the scene like David Schwartz, Wayne Carey or Dermott Brereton. I am happy to see him as a work in progress. I hope he keeps well away from this "supporter" site.
